Brewed an MWS extract kit for their Holiday Ale today. This is my second batch. I hit my temp targets with the steeping grains and got down to pitching temp in 20 minutes, but ended a little high with my volume, almost 6 gallons at the end of the boil. However, the OG was either right on target (1.066) or just a bit high taking the reading temperature into account (1.068). So I'm thinking I'm ok. I've read that extract kits should be spot on with gravity, so I'm wondering why I'm on the high end when I had so much wort at the end of the boil.
One little hiccup: my rehydrated yeast sat in water for well over an hour while I prepped the wort.
Anything to worry about?
